    The Question is simple. The reason of asking this question is because I want to buy a DSL connection. It's pretty expensive here.

    But I would want to know the amount of tarrif/bandwidth you use monthly. So I could go for an average plan.

    I'm not asking the bandwidth of your web site. I'm asking the number of data you send and receive from ur computer, i.e. Bandwidth...

    I use internet almost 10 hours a day. and open allot of web sites, and pictures... I am a freelance coder and have to download PSD of my clients, almost every day.
    Now the question is, how much bandwidth will I use?

    I know you can't give an accurate guess. But at least you can try...

    THANKS!

    Wow, lucky you.

    The unlimited Plan, here, costs $150 per month!

    The Plan I want to go for is 10GB 512 kbps, which will cost around $30 per month.

    Is it worth it?

    I use 75 kbps unlimited (pathetic!) at about 10$ a month.

    I download almost nothing! I can't even watch Youtube videos... I'm screwed!

    I didn't know there was a limit.. I don't think I use that much because I don't download.

    Guys, thanks for the answers. But I'm still confused to go with a plan.

    I would like to add another question though...

    I use internet almost 10 hours a day. and open allot of web sites, and pictures... I am a freelance coder and have to download PSD of my clients, almost every day.
    Now the question is, how much bandwidth will I use?

    Cheap DSL here. I have 5mbp/s unlimited and paying about $18/month for it.

    As well I think that I download too much crap, (movies and music from torrents what goes for about 100gb per month)

    Well download speed is really nice! But Upload speed sucks hard I can upload only with 50-55kb/s
    Yeah For $18 only :D
    Before this 5mbps I had 2mbps for the same price but than they offered for me some special promotion price and I get 2.5times faster net without paying any extra for it.
